And the Winner is…

Congratulations Michelle, you are the winner with a total score of 19 out of a possible 24 points.  Second place goes to Fluffy, followed very closely by Navchick.

Michelle you are amazing, I’m not sure how you managed to answer some of those questions and your Google skills are very impressive.

Thank you to everyone who joined in and played along, I had loads of fun doing it and it gave me an excuse to get out and take photos while trying to keep up my blog (which was hard at times).

Sorry the results have taken so long, there are not enough hours in the day when you have eaten too much and simply must exercise when you get home from work.  Plus recently I’ve had a bit of extra part time work which has been very cool but it’s kept me very busy.

So Michelle what have you won?  See the picture below, it’s a magnetic wood/perspex block photo frame (my favourite type) plus your choice of printed photo to go in the frame, so let me know which photo you like the most.  It can be any of the pics in my Flickr account, would you like me to post it to you or would you prefer to collect it in person at Christmas time?

One thought on “And the Winner is…

  1. Oh, thank you so much!! I feel so honoured to have won!

    And what a fabulous prize, it is absolutely perfect as I had been looking for something like that, but gave up as I just couldn’t find one. I will be happy to collect my prize in person, I think on Chrismas Eve maybe? I will let you know which photo I would like. So many lovely ones to choose from!

    This is a list of all the things I have ever won in my whole entire life so far:

    A Lord of the Rings DVD
    2 frozen chickens
    2 assorted boxes of biscuits
    A calculator that didn’t work

    So, this is the very best prize by far!

    Thank you again Bryan
    Lots of love,
    Michelle

    PS I am looking forward to the next quiz!
